A historical blend of seemingly incompatible varieties for adventurous wine lovers - featuring red Plavac Mali grapes from the location of Dingač and an ancient Istrian grape - Teran, reflects the full character of Petra Rožanić, Rožanić family artist. The two most popular Croatian red varieties, the Plavac Mali grapes from the location of Dingač and the ancient Istrian grape of Teran, are blended together in one wine for the first time in history.

From opposite sides of the Croatian coastline, these two grapes have battled for a top spot for centuries. In Roxanich Petra 2/6, Mladen has convinced them to put aside their differences. Aged in barrels for four years, both wines are then blended 6 months before bottling. Where the two varieties might behave like squabbling children, with Roxanich Petra 2/6 Mladen has engineered a viticultural time-out - both wines are bold, spiced and aromatic - ripe figs crushed in the hand with raw forest berries.

The Roxanich Petra 2/6 changes very quickly in the glass, with slightly bitter notes on the aftertaste turning into fruity sweetness. Spirited: to be enjoyed now or left to mature for a few years (or to at least work out their childish differences).

Roxanich is an artisan winery of rare, long aged, premium, natural wines, from ancient Venetian lands. Rožanić family’s wine adventure in Istria began 30 years ago. Roxanich is an artisan winery of rare, long aged, premium, natural wines, from ancient Venetian lands. Since the beginning our focus has been an uncompromising attitude towards quality and to produce authentic wines in harmony with nature. The Swiss entrepreneur Mladen Rožanić, founded his avantgarde winery in Motovun with single estate vineyards in Bušura and Bačva, Istria, and runs it still today personally with his six daughters, the eponymous Sorelle, with focus on uncompromising quality. Mladen Rožanić is perhaps best described as the first movie director of wine. He displays his own handwriting - outsider in the wine business - thinking honest but big, and creating equally honest but big wines. He creates spaces for taste-jumps never seen before, delicate and elegant, unified in one single glass of wine. No winemaker has shaped the natural wine scene like Mladen Rožanić in recent years. With a maximum of knowledge, he brings wines to bottles with a minimum of intervention. Today every Roxanich wine is a reflection of the magical place where it was created and the strict natural, organic philosophy behind it. Roxanich wines are produced in small, exclusive quantities, which stubbornly counter today’s fast, aggressive commercial production outputs. No matter what your preference is, you will find a perfect bottle for any occasion. Our selection of 20 labels, including a new sparkling wine and a fortified wine, ranges from light and refreshing whites and rosés, to rich, long aged and macerated white, orange and red wines. Our exclusive showrooms are located at Brand New Wines in Zurich, Switzerland, and inside the new Winery and Design Hotel in Motovun, Istria.
